| Summary: |
With the international technical days 2008, ICOMOS France aims
to offer an overview of state-of-the-art preservation and restoration
techniques for wood structures (timber framing and panels, windows
and doors, specific wood structures…) for historical buildings
in France and abroad.
Working languages : English and French.
The meeting will bring together scientists, curators, restorers,
firms (those involved in frameworks, manufacturers for the various
products, materials and diagnosis tools…), representatives
of public authorities and local communities.
This event will address assessment, consolidation and protection
methods, professional standards and regulations (or lack of), and
current day expertise. The problem of parasites will be examined:
detection, diagnosis and treatment. Related themes concerning finish
and dendrochronology will also be explored.
These subjects will be illustrated by examples of operations accomplished
in the preservation-restoration field.
